Weekly Forecast: June 23 – 29, 2024, Kelly M. Beard, 25 June 2024

​6/26 :: Mercury (your thinking) ~trine~ Saturn (structure & organization):

This energy is good for deep thinking. You are sharp and your standards are high because you are in ‘strategy mode’. This is a more solitary energy though, so communications with others may be hampered a bit because it is time for you to hold your own, at some new level. It’s time to focus on the details that hold the big dream together, all the little things that make the grand vision work. Some folks respect that attention to detail while others may consider it nit-picky but it is what the energy supports at this time so don’t worry if others don’t understand what you’re going through. By the same token, you may also feel a little overwhelmed by the many “little things” that cannot be denied or delayed and thus a sense of urgency to get it all done. Beware of a tendency toward pessimism, depression or overwhelm. Try to stay focused on all the blessings that you do have and all that you have accomplished instead of what’s still on the list of things to do (in life). This energy is not intended to make you feel bad about all the things left yet to do, but encourage you to begin the necessary steps for manifesting your dreams. This energy just makes you focus on the practical side of manifesting. Clear the debris, and begin to lay a new, clean, solid foundation beneath your goals. Saturn gets you present to the necessary steps and Mercury helps you think clearly.

6/28  ::  Venus (feminine values & priorities) ~sextile~ Mars (masculine desires & actions):

This energy fosters a harmonious blend between self-awareness and engaging with others. It encourages exploration, welcoming new experiences and connections whenever possible. Such an energy fosters a delightful atmosphere, balancing both masculine and feminine energies, fostering a harmonious interaction between self and others. It is an opportune moment for creativity; pay attention to any inspirations that surface, even if immediate implementation isn’t feasible. This vibrant and joyful energy promotes sociability, so take the chance to have some fun & socialize. There is potential to draw someone into your life during this phase because magnetism is activated. Engaging with fresh, forward-thinking ventures or individuals aligns perfectly with this positive energy. Overall, it is an incredibly uplifting period.

6/29  ::  Mercury (ideas, thoughts & concepts) ~sextile~ Uranus (awakening & radical change):

This energy encourages embracing change and doing things in a new & different way, as you adjust to the new normal for right now. This is an opportunity to gain traction with your ideas, navigate positive shifts and shake things up in a beneficial manner. However, if the idea of new or different feels overwhelming & chaotic rather than uplifting & invigorating, it may signal a need for introspection to assess any mental rigidity or holding onto old ideas that have run their course. Resisting the current of change could exacerbate challenges associated with this energy, like being scattered & indecisive. Now is also an opportune moment to address recurring issues or long-standing obstacles, as ignoring them will not lead to their resolution. If you have been stuck in repetitive patterns, consider embracing fresh perspectives and alternative approaches. Be alert to new ideas & choices that may present themselves during this time, because of your *Awakened* perspective. Stay open to unexpected opportunities, events & concepts, and allow space for spontaneous creativity & unusual insights to guide you. Embrace the possibility of veering off your intended or usual path to explore new ideas, rhythms or environments – anything to stimulate inspiration & imagination.

6/29  ::  Saturn Retro in PISCES (until Nov 15th):

First things first, Saturn takes 28-30 years to travel through all 12 signs, spending 2-3 years in each sign. Saturn is also known as the Great Teacher, Father Time or Lord of Karma ~ its whole purpose is to teach important lessons, determine healthy limits and remind you that YOU are responsible for all of it ~ who you are as well as what you create in the world. As Saturn moves through the sky, and thus through each sign, it will activate Saturn lessons for the collective. During the 20th Century, Saturn moved through PISCES: 1905-08 … 1935-38 … 1964-67 … 1993-96 and now, the 21st Century brings the first one in 2023-26. You can reflect on the history of those times to assess the collective lessons and repetitive patterns (there are many).

We are in an unprecedented Seed Time for our personal, social & collective lives. Think of Saturn as a Teacher/Guide. Think of Aries thru Pisces as the Lessons that we all have to learn and just like any other education, some things will be naturally easier & naturally harder, according to your individual blueprint & disposition. During PISCES, the Lessons have to do with your intuition, surrender, integration & good boundaries. We are completing a 30-year cycle of Reality & Purpose. Personally, our Roles & Responsibilities have run a full cycle and should be considered for renewal at this time. Imagine, this is the time to *incubate* the New Vision that you will act on and activate in literal terms when Saturn hits Aries in 2026 so we want to prepare consciously.

On the positive side, we can harness our imaginations to think differently and dream bigger so that we are calling in a New Vision for Self & Humanity, as well as a deeper connection to and reverence for the mystery of life on Earth. We are being called to more awareness & care of our physical bodies, as well as improved spiritual practices and deepened dedication to honoring being a Spirit in Physical Form. We will re-set our personal boundaries in social & collective settings and reclaim our power to control the input of information or images into our consciousness, being more discerning & creative, rather than being lazy & accepting things at face-value.

On the negative side, the Shadow expression of this energy leads to literal insanity, a disconnect from reality because it is too harsh, upsetting or counter to the vision in our minds. We can lose ourselves in the overwhelm of societal & collective crumbling and go down a dark tunnel of victimhood, martyrdom & judgement.

When Retrograde, we get to re-dream our reality in some way. Tune-in to the Higher Self and ask for concrete directions on how to proceed. This means that we may have to tweak our spiritual practices during this time to be more effective & meaningful. It’s definitely a time to heal & integrate anything blocking or delaying your results & rewards. Once it goes Direct (11/15), we will have an opportunity to move things around to accommodate the evolved vision for the year.
